Brazil oil and gas production rises 13 pct in November -ANP

RIO DE JANEIRO Jan 6 (Reuters) - Brazil's oil and natural
gas production in November increased 13.3 percent compared with
the same period last year as new fields started up and older
fields came back onstream after maintenance, oil agency ANP said
on Tuesday.

Oil and gas production reached 2.935 million barrels of oil
and equivalent natural gas per day (boepd) in November,
according to an ANP statement.

November output, though, was 1.4 percent less than in
October.

State-run oil company Petrobras was by far the
biggest producer with 2.48 million boepd. Britain's BG
was the second largest with 110,293 boepd in November.
Anglo-Dutch major Shell was third with 48,267 boepd.
